Arbitration agreements take away your rights under the 7th amendment to the Constitution of the United States.
Arbitration Agreements are now showing up on everything from car loans to internet access.
These judgments for the most part are kept secret from the public and there is no appeals process if you lose.
The Seventh Amendment extends the right to a jury trial to federal civil cases such as car accidents, disputes between corporations for breach of contract, or most discrimination or employment disputes. In civil cases, the person bringing the lawsuit (the plaintiff) seeks money damages or a court order preventing the person being sued (the defendant) from engaging in certain conduct.
